The Kansas City Chiefs and Andy Reid have reached an agreement to make him the next head coach of the team, ESPN reported. The news came as no surprise, as reports surfaced Thursday indicating a deal was imminent.

Reid had a lengthy interview with the Chiefs on Wednesday, and from that point it was only a matter of time before details in the agreement were ironed out.

Reid is taking over a team that has floundered the past two seasons, but is not devoid of talent. Although the Chiefs were 2-14 this season, five of their players made the Pro Bowl.

The first order of business will be to bring in a general manager to assist Reid, who will have power over personnel like he did in Philadelphia. Green Bay Packers director of football operations John Dorsey and former Cleveland Browns GM Tom Heckert are viewed as top candidates for the job.

The next order of business will be finding a quarterback to boost a dismal passing game. Another plus: The Chiefs have the first pick of the 2013 NFL Draft, although some draft experts don't believe there is a quarterback worthy of the top pick.
